Typically, obtaining approval for an unsecured loan, such as a personal loan, is difficult without a strong credit score to back you up. Many lenders see individuals with bad credit as a high credit risk, so even if you do end up qualifying for a personal loan, your interest rate could be incredibly high.
Title loans can often cater to many Americans from all different kinds of credit and financial backgrounds because they are secured loans! With a secured loan, you are required to pledge an asset as collateral for the loan, so the application process can be much more flexible. Even if you aren’t confident with your credit history, you could potentially apply for a title loan!
It depends. Some title lenders don’t report your payment behavior to any of the major credit bureaus, including Experian and Equifax. Your payment behavior refers to how you make your payments. Are they made on time? Is your loan in good standing? The answers to those questions can impact your credit score if your lender is reporting that behavior. It is important to keep up with your loan payments and make sure that your loan stays in good standing!
Like most loan options, title loans have the potential to hurt your credit score. One of the ways a title loan could affect your credit score is through loan default and repossession.
If you stop making payments and end up defaulting on your loan, you are likely violating the terms of your loan contract. Once your loan is funded, a title lender places a lien on your car’s title, and it stays there until your loan is paid off.
Therefore, as your lienholder, the title lender has the legal right to repossess your car and sell it at auction if you do not comply with the terms of your agreement and default on your loan.
